Why High Income Earners Are Choosing Columbus Ohio Over Their $800K+ Local Markets

Discover why 85% of my real estate investment clients are from expensive markets like California, New York, New Jersey, and Washington - and why they're choosing Columbus, Ohio for their investment properties!

🏡 4 Key Reasons High Income Earners Invest Out of State:

✅ OPPORTUNITY COST - Skip the $200K+ down payments required in expensive markets! Find cash-flowing properties in Columbus for $120K-$180K that still hit the 1% rule.

✅ APPRECIATION + CASH FLOW - Columbus has delivered 60% growth over 5 years (12% annually) - beating the S&P 500 while still providing positive cash flow. Most expensive markets force you to choose between appreciation OR cash flow - here you get both!

✅ POSITIVE CASH FLOW - Real case study: Recent client bought a 3BR/1BA for $120K, renting for $1,550/month. The 1% rule is still achievable even at 7% interest rates.

✅ LANDLORD-FRIENDLY LAWS - 30-day average evictions vs 12+ months in tenant-friendly states like California and New York. Protect your investment returns!

📈 Columbus Ohio Market Stats:

✅ Average price 5 years ago: $160K

✅ Current average price: $264K
